Fantastic Futures 2024

Fantastic Futures (FF24), the international conference on AI for Libraries, Archives, and Museums, will be held at the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia (NFSA) in Canberra, Australia, from 15 to 18 October 2024.   

The conference will include a combination of international and Australian keynote presentations, workshops, demonstrations, academic papers, and creative commissions. It's enfolded by a rich on-site experience comprising two days of bespoke pre-conference workshops, a networking dinner, Canberra tours and tailored events, including unique access to the National Film & Sound Archive collection and a performance by award-winning Australian audiovisual artist and composer Robin Fox.  

Under the 2024 Conference theme of Artificial Intelligence in the future of work in GLAMs (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums), the four-day event will facilitate exploration of the current state and potential futures of artificial intelligence and generative AI within the GLAM sector, through the lenses of history, language, and culture in relation to place, particularly in an Australasian context.
